Download the Last Version for Windows New Hampshire Plumber Installer License Prep Class: A Cautionary Tale of Unpreparedness

As a small business owner, it's easy to get caught up in the excitement of launching your venture. I should know; I once found myself in a situation where my lack of confidence and preparedness nearly led me down the path of disaster.

It all started with a phone call from a prospective client looking for someone to paint his office. The job seemed straightforward enough, but little did I know that it would ultimately land me in hot water with the contractors' board. Despite having done plenty of smaller jobs in the past, I had never ventured into larger commercial projects. As a result, I was woefully unprepared when it came to navigating the complexities of local regulations.

When the investigator arrived at my doorstep, I was caught off guard by his list of services that I was allegedly advertising illegally. It seemed that I had unknowingly been breaking the law by offering services that required a specific trade license – namely, painting contractor's licenses.

Feeling defeated and confused, I asked the investigator why he was giving me a ticket. His response? 'You can't advertise services that require a specific trade license.' He then proceeded to hand me a ticket with a smug little look on his face.

But here's the thing: this job was clearly going to cost more than $1,000. As a law-abiding citizen, I knew that I couldn't do jobs outside of my legal limits without the proper licenses and permits. So, I told the investigator that this job was outside of my scope and that I could only take on projects worth less than $1,000.

In hindsight, I realize now that I should have done more research into local laws and regulations before taking on the project. But at the time, I was too focused on getting the job done to worry about the fine print.

So, how can you avoid making the same mistake? Here are a few tips:

* Research local laws: Take the time to familiarize yourself with your state's specific regulations regarding handyman work.

* Know what services require licenses: Don't be like me – make sure you understand which services require specialized licenses and permits before taking on a job.

Remember, it's always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to your business. By doing your due diligence upfront, you can avoid costly mistakes and ensure that your venture stays on track.
